Dog experiments

    Some scientists decided to do the following experiments on a dog.

    For the first experiment, they cut one of the dog’s legs off, then they told the dog to walk. The dog got up and walked, so they learned that a dog could walk with just three legs.

    For the second experiment, they cut off a second leg, then they told the dog once more to walk. The dog was still able to walk with only two legs.

    For the third experiment, they cut off yet another leg and once more they told the dog to walk. However, the dog wasn’t able to walk with only one leg.

    As a result of these three experiments, the scientists wrote in their final report that the dog had lost its hearing after having three legs cut off.

    After the police

    have gone

    A Scotsman, who was driving home one night, ran into a car driven by an Englishman. The Scotsman got out of the car to apologize and offered the Englishman a drink from a bottle of whisky. The Englishman was glad to have a drink.

    “Go on,” said the Scot, “have another drink.”

    The Englishman drank gratefully. “But don’t you want one, too?” he asked the Scotsman.

    “Perhaps,” replied the Scotsman, “after the police have gone.”
